So nice to meet you Minister and for the productive conversation about folks experiencing homelessness, mental health and addictions. Myself and our team The Alex appreciates the ongoing support of our Rapid Access Addiction Medicine clinic. #communityhealth

At tonight’s Longest Night of the Year ceremony, it was announced 436 people experiencing homelessness have died so far this year in Calgary. Nearly double the number of deaths recorded last year.

To those we loved and lost,
To those who served and never came home,
To those who continue to serve,
Today on #RemembranceDay , and every day in between,
We will remember them.
